We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home in Lauderdale by the Sea. Judy's place is immaculate, comfortable, beautifully decorated, and includes all the amenities we could possible need! Judy is an amazing host who is very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed lots of time in the gorgeous pool area - the outdoor space is well maintained and the plants and decor make it a lovely place to relax. The location is ideal, within easy walking distance to the beach, restaurants, bars, and the supermarket. This was our 3rd time staying here and we will look forward to coming back again next year!

Second time staying at Judy’s and we loved it. LBTS is a great town and we will stay at no other place than at Judy’s.

I wish we could’ve stayed longer! We loved the apartment. It was clean and very comfortable. Very easy to get to all the locations in the area. We highly recommend the SeaWatch Restaurant if you are looking for good food but not so much of a party atmosphere.

My Husband and I love Lauderdale by the Sea. It is a town where you don't need a car and it feels like home (to us). This rental was perfect. The pool area is the highlight and the convenience to beach, shopping and dining. We walked everywhere. So glad that we were able to stay here. Would recommend without reservation.

Great stay, more than expected!

I can sum it up in one word “perfect”. We have been using HomeAway for about 5 years and this property was overall the best yet. Small but there wasn’t anything more we could ask for, very well furnished, spotlessly clean and a great location for our purposes. If your looking to stay in this area don’t pass it by, we plan to return.

Everything we had hoped for!

The property was exactly as advertised and pictured, one of the most well maintained and charming places we've stayed. It was just the right size for my husband and it. Beach and shops were a 5-10 minute walk. Publix was a 5 minute drive (walkable if you wanted). Kitchen, laundry, and bath were well stocked and maintained. It was too cold while we were there to enjoy the pool, but it looked fantastic! Judy was prompt and great to talk to.

Perfect Home

Judy's home is the perfect spot for a relaxing vacation! She has thought of every little detail to make her home spotless, comfortable and homey. You can enjoy the pool and relaxing with a book in her beautiful, quiet outside sitting areas. The furniture in the living room and the bed are so comfortable and the whole house has cute beach decor. We enjoyed talking to Judy and appreciate her warm hospitality. We have visited Lauderdale by the Sea on many occasions. Judy's house is definitely one that we will be returning to. Thank you Judy for sharing your beautiful oasis!

Perfect Oasis

This property is just as pictured. Just beautiful and within walking distance to all you need, if you even feel a need to leave. Judy is very responsive and the pride of ownership and the attention to every detail is unmatched in any rental we have ever stayed at in the past. Every inch is beyond clean. We only went to Fort Lauderdale to visit our son who is interning there for the summer. LBTS is now on our return destinations list even after he goes back to school. It was a perfect and relaxing few days away. Thanks Judy!!!!

Awesome stay!

This place was exactly as described -- clean, great location, adorable details, has what you need, cozy and comfy, awesome outdoor area. The host was great! Very responsive to messages and our request to check in early. She makes it very explicit on the page that she lives in the other unit; we expected to see her a couple times, and we did have quite a few interactions daily and there were a couple maintenance people cutting in and out through the pool for a couple hours while we were out there. It would have been helpful just to have had a heads up before they were suddenly letting themselves in through the gate. Overall, an awesome trip and would still recommend people staying here! We walked literally everywhere, except to/from the airport.

About the host

Hosted by Judy

Host profile image
Growing up in the Carolina's, I enjoyed visiting my grandmother in South Florida. I always loved the warm, sunny, tropical climate! After completing school, I moved to Fort Lauderdale in 1980. It was the beginning of a 29 year career as a flight attendant with a major airline. I'm retired from the airline industry, I enjoy being at home and maintaining a beautiful cottage style home and my guest.

I have a passion for decorating and gardening!

I've really enjoyed meeting some terrific people through my VRBO experience. I look forward to meeting you!

I've lived and visited so many places during my life but somehow always found myself returning to the place I call home, Lauderdale By The Sea, Florida. It just feels good....

Why they chose this property

Why stay in a hotel or condominium building when you can have your own private place with only two units on the property?? Lauderdale By The Sea (LBTS) is a walking community. Every morning neighbors are out walking, enjoying their morning coffee, breakfast on the pier, beach, boating, shopping and just enjoying the simple things in life! It's rated one of the safest communities in Florida. It's peaceful with a wonderful ocean breeze! I love living here! It's such a unique coastal town with so much charm.....
The property is located in a quite area on the north side of Commercial Blvd. One block to Publix Grocery store, 3 blocks to beach, shops and restaurants. Las Olas Blvd. is a quick 10 minute drive down A1A.

What makes this property unique

This property has only two units. I take great pride in my property and want you to be as comfortable as you are in your own home. You will find everything you need and more! It's not your typical rental! Please read all my wonderful reviews from tenants.

At night the property comes alive with landscaping lighting! Take a night swim under the stars while enjoying cocktails & poolside BBQ. This property isn't just a rental, it's your home away from home! It's a Happy place!! You won't be disappointed!

Jump on the water taxi and cruise the Intracoastal Waterway sightseeing. There are bike rentals nearby, Publix grocery store and shopping center 1 block away. LBTS has it's own fishing pier with restaurant. It's easy to vacation here without a car.

Most folks return year after year for their annual vacation in Lauderdale By The Sea. I'm very pleased they choose my home to be my guest again....

Lauderdale By the Sea is a very well sought after community. The town is full of beach side charm. LBTS completed a major face-lift costing millions of dollars. Their plans included more side walk cafes, live entertainment, upscale shops, wider sidewalks, beach area seating, landscaping and much more for everyone to enjoy! We have a Farmer's Market monthly and free dance lessons at the LBTS Pavilion every Sunday during the season.
